Thanks, I actually had a big guyana girl years ago, but had to give her up to a friend during a really rough patch in my life. Ever since, I had been hoping the day would come where I could find another one and start again, and it finally has. So far, I haven't treated her for anything internal, but I'm gonna wait a week and see if she eats and or poops, and then I may take that to see if my vet will run a fecal for me. Considering the risk of possible disease, I'm keeping her seperate from my collection untill next winter... just to be sure. My first guyana years ago was wild caught most likely, but back then I never worried about parasites or disease, and she never gave me any health issues in the many years I had her.Originally Posted by WhompingWillow
It must be boa fever!!She's a beautiful pickup. I love Guyanas. Came so close to going home with one recently but ultimately chose the BCO instead. Are you doing anything different as far as treating for internal parasites? I just posted a thread on that today - I've got a little somethin' somethin' coming this week, also a CB import - trying to figure out the best time to take her to the vet for an exam and am planning to get a fecal done on her.
